Playing Along
Learning begins by living in the moment
Improvisation exits the stage and enters the classroom with 37 mind-opening activities designed to support problem solving, promote team building, spark
creative thinking, and build self-esteem. These innovative, playful activities are borrowed from a classic art form: improvisational theater. Developed for group
leaders who have no improvisational theater experience, these easy, step-by-step proven techniques--originally designed to help actors solve problems on
stage--build an optimal learning environment by
fostering understanding,
reducing resistance,
creating cohesiveness, &
promoting active participation in the learning process.
Whatever your topic, these brief (5-10 minute) exercises activate the all-important learning skills of listening, accepting, affirming, imagining, and trusting--and
pave the way for personal growth or organizational change.
